Since 1803, when its founders set aside land for a village green, open spaces and gardens have been an important part of life in Worthington. From the iconic hanging baskets that have adorned city streetlamps since 1992 to the community’s love of trees and its long-running garden clubs, Worthington’s citizens brandish a collective green thumb. Our April exhibit highlights some of the groups and people who have played a key role in the development of natural spaces.
